(Cato) had a saying … that the Roman people were like sheep; for they, when single, do not obey, but when all together in a flock, they follow their leaders: ‘So you’, said he, ‘when you have got together in a body, let yourselves be guided by those whom singly you would never think of being advised by.’ – Acts 54:19-20, The Good Book: a Humanist Bible
